Here, by us, for the worshipper, is the wise bolt that works with skill. It brings the bubbling beverage as a dexterous man brings the effectual strong drink.

ghṛṣuḥ śyenāya kṛtvana āsu svāsu vaṃsagaḥ ava dīdhed ahīśuvaḥ

Impetuous Ahisuva, a bull among cows of his, looked down upon the restless Hawk.

yaṃ suparṇaḥ parāvataḥ śyenasya putra ābharat śatacakraṃ yo 'hyo vartaniḥ

That the strong-pinioned Bird hath brought, Child of the Falcon, from afar, What moves upon a hundred wheels along the female Dragon's path.

yaṃ te śyenaś cārum avṛkam padābharad aruṇam mānam andhasaḥ enā vayo vi tāry āyur jīvasa enā jāgāra bandhutā

Which, fair, unrobbed, the Falcon brought thee in his foot, the red-hued dwelling of the juice; Through this came vital power which lengthens out our days, and kinship through its help awoke.

evā tad indra indunā deveṣu cid dhārayāte mahi tyajaḥ kratvā vayo vi tāry āyuḥ sukrato kratvāyam asmad ā sutaḥ

So Indra is by lndu's power; e'en among Gods will it repel great treachery. Wisdom, Most Sapient One, brings force that lengthens life. May wisdom bring the juice to us.
